This is probably the most vintage style fragrance one can get anywhere - the bottle, the cap, the label and the juice. The fragrance reminds me of the Tweed style fragrances that used to be quite popular in the 1950s and 1960s. A simple, straightforward lavender patchouli floral combo, reminding me of fragrances my grandmother and her friends used to wear. If you want an authentic vintage experience, this is the best option (and it is quite cheap, so worth a try). I guess not everybody will like it, as it is very old fashioned - but then again, that's why you would want to try it.
